Sioux

Meaning & origin

Sioux is a gender-neutral name derived from Native American history. It comes from the term *Nadouessioux*, a name applied by the Ojibwa people, and is commonly translated as “enemy” or “adversary.” It is important to note that using the names of Indigenous tribes for individuals who are not Native is widely regarded as cultural appropriation and may be offensive to many.
